None of the tunes I tried were complicated, and I looked for ones that had clearly audible chords. A more experienced musician may find some clues that could be helpful. I'd say this program could be useful for an beginning/intermediate player who has some knowledge of chord structure and a bit of an ear for changes. I found a slow one with 3 chords that it did get right. It ignored whole phrases of the tune and got the rest, I'd say, about 50%. Tried a fiddle tune, just fiddle with guitar backup. "Ooby Dooby" (straight ahead 12 bar blues in E) - it picked out the basic pattern, was confused by any deviation. Roy Orbison, "Only the Lonely" - a little better. It didn't seem to recognize fingerpicking at all. A brief suspended chord was labeled a 7th. It was also a mix of correct, wrong and missing. From Taylor I picked out an old folk tune, "The Water is Wide". Again, wrong and missing chords among some correct. Ok, Blues Traveler could be too much for it. I couldn't tell what it was listening to that confused it.
It seemed to give an approximation which was sometimes right, sometimes wrong, sometimes missing whole sections (even of a repetitive phrase), giving no chords at all where there were obvious changes, and making up chords trying to match bass riffs, also wrong.
In a last ditch attempt I tried Internet Explorer (11) and it worked.įor a test I tried a few tracks from Blues Traveler Four. Will be uninstalling the software, and am not happy with their lack of support, especially given that the offer was very time sensitive. arpeggios, or such) then it wasn't very accurate. I did give the software a try, and it was ok, but definitely needed some clear chord hits to get the chords correct and placed decently. I tried emailing their support directly, but have yet (a day later) to receive any acknowledgement or registration key. I then tried Chrome, which did finally bring up the info fields for me to register, but never received the promised email with the registration key (I get everything sent to my online mailbox because I manually filter it myself). Sent an inquiry via their website form, but only received an exceedingly lengthy automated canned response. Their website "spun" for a couple of hours on both Firefox and Internet Explorer (probably 3rd party cookie issue - bad, bad, bad). Installed this and tried to get the registration key.
